Book excerpt: Angel says that Fang will be the first to die, and Angel is never wrong. Maximum Ride is used to living desperately on the run from evil forces sabotaging her quest to save the world--but nothing has ever come as close to destroying her as this horrifying prophetic message. Fang is Max's best friend, her soul mate, her partner in the leadership of her flock of winged children. A life without Fang is a life unimaginable. When a newly created winged boy, the magnificent Dylan, is introduced into the flock, their world is upended yet again. Raised in a lab like the others, Dylan exists for only one reason: he was designed to be Max's perfect other half. Thus unfolds a battle of perfection versus passion that terrifies, twists, and turns...and meanwhile, the apocalypse is coming.
Download or read book Burying the Mountain written by Shangyang Fang and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Shangyang Fang’s debut Burying the Mountain, longing and loss rush through a portal of difficult beauty. Absence is translated into fire ants and snow, a boy’s desire is transfigured into the indifference of mountains and rivers, and loneliness finds its place in the wounded openness of language. From the surface of a Song Dynasty ink-wash painting to a makeshift bedroom in Chengdu, these poems thread intimacy, eros, and grief. Evoking the music of ancient Chinese poetry, Fang alloys political erasure, exile, remembrance, and death into a single brushstroke on the silk scroll, where names are forgotten as paper boats on water.

Download or read book White Fang written by Jack London and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of London’s most interesting and ambitious works”-Robert Greenwood White Fang is an allegorical adventure story about a part wolf, part dog who is born in the violent, harsh environment of the Canadian Yukon territory. The novel begins with two men attempting to bring a corpse back to civilization as they are followed by a pack of starving wolves. The novel, in its second act, switches to the perspective of the wolves. As a pup, White Fang endures battles of survival with his mother, One-Eye, against other wolves and a lynx. When One-Eye is in the close vicinity to a Native Indian village, she is recognized as an animal who had been part of the encampment at one point. Grey Beaver, a young hunter, adopts White Fang. The other dogs and pups resent the new addition to the village, and torment White Fang, who in turn becomes contentious. He is sold to a dog fighter, and into a brutal life of violence. He is eventually rescued and brought to California, to start a very different life in the care of a loving master and his family. Although White Fang has become a very popular classic among readers, as an allegorical novel it is of great interest to sophisticated readers. The book has been adapted into many film versions, TV series, and animations. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of White Fang is both modern and readable.
Download or read book THE CALL OF THE WILD WHITE FANG written by Jack London and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-12-12 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jack London's dual-novel compilation of 'The Call of the Wild' and 'White Fang' delves deep into the wild and untamed landscapes of the Yukon and the Klondike during the gold rush era. London's prose is stark yet rich with vivid imagery, perfectly capturing the raw, brutal beauty of the natural world and the struggle for survival. Through the eyes of his animal protagonists, Buck and White Fang, London paints a powerful narrative on the primal instincts and the fight for dominance in a harsh, unforgiving environment. Both novels exemplify London's signature naturalism style, blending realism with themes of individualism, instinct, and the conflict between civilization and the untamed wilderness. His exploration of the human-animal relationship is thought-provoking and resonates with readers of all ages. Jack London's own experiences as a sailor, prospector, and adventurer undoubtedly influenced the authenticity and ruggedness of his writing. His passion for nature and adventure shines through in 'The Call of the Wild' and 'White Fang,' making them timeless classics that continue to captivate audiences seeking a deeper understanding of the natural world and man's place within it.
